Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On February 9, 2022, McAfee Corp., a Delaware corporation (“McAfee”), held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to consider certain proposals related to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 5, 2021, among Condor BidCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Condor Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Subsidiary”) and McAfee (as amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Merger Subsidiary will merge with and into McAfee and the separate corporate existence of Merger Subsidiary will cease, with McAfee continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”).

As of December 29, 2021, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 439,235,299 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) and Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share of McAfee (“Class B Common Stock” and together with Class A Common Stock, “Company Stock”), outstanding, each of which was entitled to one vote for each proposal at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, a total of 408,351,102 shares of Company Stock, representing approximately 92.96% of the total shares of Company stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, were present virtually or by proxy, constituting a quorum to conduct business.

At the Special Meeting, the following proposals were considered:

 

  (1)

the proposal to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement;

 

  (2)

the proposal to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation that may be paid or become payable to McAfee’s named executive officers that is based on or otherwise relates to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and

 

  (3)

the proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates if necessary or appropriate to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement at the time of the Special Meeting.

The proposals were approved by the requisite vote of McAfee’s stockholders. The final voting results for each proposal are described below. For more information on each of these proposals, see McAfee’s definitive proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 4, 2022, as supplemented by the information contained in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by McAfee with the SEC on February 2, 2022.
